A cross-sectional study on person-centred communication in the care of older people: the COMHOME study protocol
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)This paper presents an international cross-sectional study on person-centred communication with older people receiving healthcare (COMHOME). Person-centred care relies on effective communication, but few studies have ... -
A Decision support system (DSS) for municipal nurses encountering health deteroriation among older people
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Background: This study is part of a larger project called ViSam and includes testing of a decision support system developed and adapted for older people on the basis of M (R) ETTS (Rapid Emergency Triage and Treatment ... -
A Demonstration of 'Broken' Visual Space
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)It has long been assumed that there is a distorted mapping between real and ‘perceived’ space, based on demonstrations of systematic errors in judgements of slant, curvature, direction and separation. Here, we have applied ... -
A didactically motivated PLS prediction algorithm
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2001)The intention of this paper is to develop an easily understood PLS prediction algorithm, especially for the control community. The algorithm is based on an explicit latent variables model, and is otherwise a combination ... -
‘‘A fine balance’’ - how child welfare workers manage organizational changes within the Norwegian Welfare State
(Journal article, 2015-03-25)In 2004, the Child Welfare Reform (CWR) was introduced in Norway. One of the most important goals of the reform was to strengthen State level authority in public child welfare and establish equal child welfare services ... -
A four-dimensional time-space trend model to be applied in the reconstruction of former sea levels and ice-front recession
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 1997)The model is represented by a four-dimensional trend function giving the elevation of the sea level (Z) above the present one as a function of locality co-ordinates (x and y) and time co-ordinate (t). The function and an ... -
A gross assessment of the suitability of selected Scottish riparian habitats for beaver
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2000)In November 1998 we were shown a selection of riparian habitats in Scotland and asked to assess their suitability for beaver based on our experience in working with beaver elsewhere. Though many examples of good beaver ... -
A human-induced landscape of fear influences foraging behavior of brown bears
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Animals adapt their foraging behavior to variations in food availability and predation risk. In Sweden, brown bears (Ursus arctos) depend on a nearly continuous intake of berries, especially bilberries (Vaccinium myrtillus) ... -
A hybrid deep learning approach for binary classification of fake news from social medias' multimodal data
(Master thesis, 2024)In this digital age, social media sites are very important for spreading news. However, they are also great places for fake news to grow, which spreads false information widely and causes problems in society. This thesis ... -
A Hybrid Deep-Learning Approach for Multi-class Cyberbullying Classification of Cyberbullying using Social Medias’ Multi-modal Data
(Master thesis, 2024)Social media sites like Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Facebook are important channels for content creation and distribution that have a big impact on business, politics, and interpersonal relationships. People ... -
A Hybrid GIS Multi-Criteria Decision-Making Method for Flood Susceptibility Mapping at Shangyou, China
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Soil salinity caused by climate change associated with rising sea level is considered as one of the most severe natural hazards that has a negative effect on agricultural activities in the coastal areas in most tropical ... -
A hydrogen-driven sustainable technology mapping for future energy hubs
(Master thesis, 2024)This thesis explores hydrogen-driven sustainable technologies for future energy hubs, addressing the urgent need for cleaner energy solutions amidst growing environmental concerns and the decline of fossil fuel resources. ... -
A Lab-on-a-disc Device for RT-LAMP Amplification of SARS-CoV-2 RNAs
(Master thesis, 2023)This project focuses on developing the amplification part of a user-friendly Lab-on-a-disc device for isothermal nucleic acid amplification testing (NAAT) of pathogens. The device is specifically designed for individuals ... -
A literature and feasibilty study on pelletization of waste
(Master thesis, 2021)Global warming is an increasing challenge globally, which makes us investigate alternative energy sources. Renewable sources from agricultural, forestry, industries and households are all potential energy sources. At the ... -
A Mathematical Theory for Mixing of Particulate Materials
(Doctoral thesis, 2006)A theoretical framework for sampling theory is developed. In this relation, concepts like mixture heterogeneity and representative samples are mathematically defined. Further, the relation between Gy's concepts of accuracy ... -
A microfluidic device for continuous sensing of systemic acute toxicants in drinking water
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)A bioluminescent-cell-based microfluidic device for sensing toxicants in drinking water was designed and fabricated. The system employed Vibrio fischeri cells as broad-spectrum sensors to monitor potential systemic cell ... -
A nearest integer solution to the longest run of randomly generated words
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)How rare is the event of observing more than a certain number of consecutive and identical letters of any kind somewhere in a randomly generated word? No one can deny that the use of generating functions is crucial for ... -
